- seating surface 120 may be connected or otherwise coupled to support frame 180 in any suitable manner or method, such as, for example, mounting via male and female coupling adapters, a screw and socket attachment, a nut and bolt attachment, a clip or pin attachment, a ball and socket attachment, or other suitable connection or coupling mechanisms, or any combination thereof.
- backrest 140 may be connected or otherwise coupled to support frame 180 in any suitable manner or method, such as, for example, mounting via male and female coupling adapters, a screw and socket attachment, a nut and bolt attachment, a clip or pin attachment, a ball and socket attachment, or other suitable connection or coupling mechanisms, or any combination thereof.
- backrest 140 may include a backrest handle, such as backrest 142 illustrated in FIGS. 1 , 2 , 4 and 5 and described in further detail below.
- seating surface 120 may include seating handles, (such as seating handles 122 a and 122 b illustrated in FIGS. 3A and 3B ) which may be employed to assist the user in moving or adjusting system 100 while seated. Seating handles 122 a and 122 b may also be employed to assist the user in lifting, transporting, arranging and stacking system 100 while not seated.
- seating handles such as seating handles 122 a and 122 b illustrated in FIGS. 3A and 3B .
- Seating handles 122 a and 122 b may also be employed to assist the user in lifting, transporting, arranging and stacking system 100 while not seated.
- Seating handles 122 a and 122 b may comprise curvatures on the underside of each outer corner of seating surface 120 , as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B , allowing the user to grasp the corner of seating surface 120 to articulate system 100 in a desired direction.
- seating handles 122 a and 122 b may comprise any other suitably shaped, sized or configured dimensions, such as grip handles, pull handles, strap handles, other suitable lifting mechanisms, or a combination thereof.
- Backrest handle 142 may comprise curvatures at the bottom of backrest 140 allowing the user to grasp backrest 140 to easily articulate system 100 in a desired direction.
- backrest handle 142 may comprise any other suitably shaped, sized or configured dimensions, such as grip handles, pull handles, strap handles, other suitable lifting mechanisms, or a combination thereof.
- backrest handle 142 may be located at any other suitable position engaging backrest 140 .
- FIG. 5 depicts the bottom view of system 100 shown in FIG. 2 illustrating a configuration of support frame 180 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.
- support frame 180 may generally comprise a pair of C-shaped bases 182 a and 182 b and a pair of L-shaped backrest spines 184 a and 184 b , as shown in FIG. 5 .
- each pair of bases 182 and backrest spines 184 may be oriented in alternative configurations, including C-shaped, L-shaped, U-shaped, V-shaped, O-shaped, D-shaped, or any other suitable shape that can be used to support system 100 .
- Each base 182 a and 182 b includes seating surface support sections 186 a and 186 b , respectively, base sections 188 a and 188 b , respectively, and vertical sections 190 a and 190 b therebetween, respectively.
- Each backrest spine 184 a and 184 b includes backrest support sections 192 a and 192 b , respectively, and base attachment sections 194 a and 194 b , respectively.
- backrest 140 may be coupled or otherwise connected to a portion of backrest support sections 192 a and 192 b , in any suitable manner, such as, for example fixedly sliding backrest 140 onto backrest support sections 192 a and 192 b via male and female coupling adapters, a screw and socket attachment, a nut and bolt attachment, a clip or pin attachment, a ball and socket attachment, or other suitable connection or coupling mechanisms, or any combination thereof.

- system 100 may be typically necessary or desirable to clean the floor, create more space in an area and/or provide a more neat and orderly appearance in a space. In such situations, it is desirable to couple system 100 to other chair units and/or furniture systems such as desk units.
- seating surface supports 124 a and 124 b may include gliders 126 a , 126 b , 126 c and 126 d (referred to herein as gliders 126 ).
- Gliders 126 may be employed to allow the user to easily stack system 100 on top of another chair system 200 , as shown in FIG. 6 , and furniture systems 300 , as shown in FIG. 7 , by facilitating the user's ability to slide system 100 on other surfaces.
- Gliders 126 also may provide a level of friction so that system 100 will not slide off of other chair units and/or furniture systems without scuffing, scratching or otherwise defacing the other structures.
- FIG. 8 illustrates a perspective view of a representative kickstand base 160 of system 100 shown in FIG. 2 according to embodiments of the present disclosure.
- Kickstand base 160 may be employed to provide further structural integrity to system 100 , thereby substantially preventing users who, intentionally or unintentionally, lean back or forward while sitting in the chair system or rock back and forth while sitting in the chair system, from leaning or rocking too far and tipping over.
- kickstand base 160 may be coupled or otherwise connected in between base sections 188 a and 188 b .
- the higher connection point between the kickstand base 160 and base sections 188 a and 188 b may provide side stability for system 100 , while kickstand base 160 may be angled enough to provide sufficient push back when force is exerted against system 100 .
- the width of kickstand base 160 may be wide enough to extensively engage the floor to create sufficient breadth to effectively prevent system 100 from tipping over.
- Kickstand base 160 may also include stoppers 162 a and 162 b made of rubber or another resilient material with a high coefficient of friction such that when stoppers 162 a and 162 b engage the floor, stoppers 162 a and 162 b may further prevent system 100 from tipping over.
- footcaps 164 a and 164 b may be coupled or otherwise connected to base sections 188 a and 188 b to further provide stability to the system 100 .
- the large surface area of footcaps 164 a and 164 b engage the floor causing friction to effectively prevent system 100 from unintentionally tipping.
- any of seating surface 120 , backrest 140 , seating handles 122 a and 122 b , and/or backrest handle 142 may be made of, composed of or otherwise include, for example, flexible material., plastic, silicon, synthetic rubber, natural rubber, polymer, other solid material, veneer, wood, cork, medium density fiber (MDF) board, particle board, fiberglass, butcher block, glass, steel, stainless steel, aluminum, metal, mesh, apertured material, polypropylene, polyurethane, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyester, high-gloss polyester, fabric, natural fiber, synthetic fiber, other suitable materials, or any combination thereof.
